David Carr

The No. 1 overall pick in the 2002 draft, Carr had just 23 victories and was sacked
249 times during his five-year stint with the team. Released in 2007 after the team acquired Matt Schaub, Carr has since played for the Panthers, 49ers and Giants (twice). In Carr's first start (the Texans' first game as a franchise and as a rookie in 2002), he led the Texans to a franchise-opening 19-10 victory over the Dallas Cowboys. He completed 10-of-22 passes for 145 yards and a pair of touchdowns to go along with an interception.
